03/19/24 - Georgia Football Spring Practice

Georgia quarterback Carson Beck (15) during the Bulldogs’ practice session in Athens on March 19, 2024.

There is so much uneasiness about college football today, and while I am comfortable with paying the players, shouldn’t there be some guardrails and some respect for the grand ole game’s traditions? Some structure and some overseeing body to bring about common sense regulation.

One of the greatest tradeoffs in the history of this great nation is being able to play a sport for a free education in return. Football was truly an amateur sport a little over a half century ago. College players for the longest time did not know they had been drafted by a team in the National Football League until they got a phone call or a form letter from the team which had drafted them.
